Anti static foam?


I'm thinking about trying this tweak and am curious how you install it (Elizabeth?). Do you just pack it in your equipment or do you have to put something between the foam and the boards? I don't want to start a fire or short out a circuit. At the low cost of this anti static foam, and with the crazy amounts of static I have here in the cold dry air here in Colorado, I'm thinking that this would be a worthwile thing to do but I just need some instruction on what and what not to do when installing the foam in my components and which components I can do and which ones I shouldn't do. Thanks!

Lol , you guys...

Ookay, sorry Elizabeth, I'm slow so once more; I'm going to cut little squares of this foam and place it on my dac chips but I first put a small square piece of plastic baggy directly on the chip, and then the foam on top of the plastic baggie? This is the part that I'm not certain of.

And you said your dac is stuffed with it; plastic baggie then foam packed to the brim on top of the baggie, baggie on top of chips?

If this is the case, would it just be best to lay a baggy covering the entire inside of the dac, with foam stuffed all over on top of that ?

Also, I was thinking of putting dynamat on the inside of the cover; any luck with that or should I not do that?

Thanks again!

"Geoffkait- Elizabeth did not say the the foam's antistatic properties were the reason why it worked. What she actually said was: "The idea of the antistatic foam is to remove the RFI as it is generated, suck it up and ground it to the chassis.""

Hmmmm. Thanks, anyway, but I'll pass.

Just to be clear, I have no idea if this tweak has any technical validity behind it and I sure don't know if it works. And w my degree of technical astuteness (not), there is no way I'm messing around w the innards of my digital gear.
